.:Nick Name:. Ghost
.:Affiliation:. Floukru / Nomad
.:Age:. Twenty-Seven

.:Physical Appearance:. There was a time when Ariel was a beautiful thing with soft blonde curls and vibrant, innocent blue eyes but the woman who stands before you now is battle hardened. Though it won't be the first thing you notice, her scars vary in shape-- from gashes along her arms and chest, to an intentional slice across her right cheek. She sports so many kill marks they travel up her back and over her shoulder, where they are met by a thin and delicate tattoo that travels up her neck and over her half shaved head. She is certainly unique, but she gave up her girlish beauty before she was even a woman. She stands tall, and when she is not wearing armored clothing she is muscular and tight with a very athletic form. Normally, she wears clothing that can be associated with Skaikru, but she's received all she has from traders and other scavengers.
.:Height:. 5'10
.:Portrayed by:. Natalie Dormer

.:Personality:. As you would expect, Ariel is not the friendly neighbourhood grounder. She is harsh, violent and certainly the slice first and ask questions later kind of woman. You would be too if you'd lived the life she has. When you're nomadic, nowhere is safe. Though, her fighting skills are not what separate her from the rest, neither is her direct disrespect for tradition by wearing Skaikru attire. What sets Ariel apart from most is that she is completely and utterly deaf. You can imagine how this would have affected her as she trained. When she was born, everything was fine... but as she grew her hearing slowly failed due to a medical issue she has yet to discover. Brain tumors, whether malignant or not have a funny way of affecting the way you develop. Slowly but surely, she is losing her eyesight as well, but you'd better believe she will go down fighting. Through that harsh exterior, there is a kinder woman but she is defensive and protective over that woman you may never find-- because that woman is the one who gets hurt the most.
.:Special Skills:. When it comes to a ranged weapon, Ariel is only a good shot at a certain range. She carries a slingshot and an axe, but her skills come more from within. She is motivated to beat whatever is in her way, which has led to the ability to feel the air around her. Sometimes, she is a better fighter with her eyes closed so that she can focus on the energies. Some think of it as supernatural, but Ariel knows that this skill is embedded in every warrior. She has just gained the ability to use it, which makes her an incredible fighter. She also has the ability to read lips in Trigedasleng, but is struggling to learn English this way despite being able to speak it.

.:Birthplace:. Floukru Village
.:Family:. Ariel's mother died in labor and her father died in battle. She was adopted by a warrior's wife who raised her to fight alongside her sons. Once, Ariel was married to a Trikru scout, but he was killed by Azgeda not too long ago. She has no children.
.:Occupation:. Scavenger/Scout
.:History:. Born in blood, it is no surprise that Ariel was raised to be a killer. On the docks of her village, she was trained from a very young age to fight alongside her adoptive brothers and under the guiding hand of her adoptive father. She never went without a meal and was talented in her task up until she was a young teen. it was around this time when she began to lose her hearing. It was slow at first, and in one ear alone but overtime she couldn't even hear her own name screamed against her face. She could only feel the vibrations in the air. This put a stunt in her learning, and she was soon relieved of her warrior duties and instead was being trained as a shiphand. It was disgraceful to her, and when she was eighteen, she left her village to join Trikru under the protection of the coalition. She married into the village and was treated as an equal despite her disabilities. She was an incredible scout and fighter, and her husband fought well by her side. When he died in a fight against Azgeda, Ariel once again found herself on her own... This time, she embraced it.
Over the years, Ariel has been making trips back and forth between each corner of the globe. She has only one wish and that is to survive. Now, under the coalition of the twelve clans she is not hostile with any village, but she still prefers the life of a recluse and only comes out of hiding when she needs something. She received her first decent haul when Skaikru fell. She never cared much for traditions anyway. Now, she is drifting-- but taking care to stay away from Skaikru and their decidedly monstrous ways.
